GOLD WING HIGHLIGHTS
50th Anniversary Edition
1833cc liquid-cooled Unicam six-cylinder engine
Reverse
Cruise control
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wireless compatibility
FEATURES
ENGINE
The horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine is famously smooth and powerful. The latest version is an 1833cc design thats over 13 pounds lighter than previous generations (more than eight pounds less for our DCT trims).
ALUMINUM CYLINDER SLEEVES
High-strength aluminum cylinder sleeves help reduce weight, increase cooling efficiency, and reduce engine length. The 73mm cylinder bore and the short, high-strength crankshaft also help make the engine more compact.
UNICAM CYLINDER HEAD DESIGN
The Unicam cylinder head design with four valves improves engine performance and power, reducing weight from the previous generation.
TWIN-WALL EXHAUST PIPES
You may think this is just for cosmetics, but single-wall exhaust pipes can throw off a lot of heat on a hot day. The twin-wall design keeps things cooler. Not to mention, this is the best-sounding Wing weve ever built.
WALKING MODE (GOLD WING AUTOMATIC DCT MODEL)
All models with DCT transmissions feature Walking Mode, which lets you creep forward or backward under power at a walking pace. Just think how easy it will be to get in and out of tight parking spots with a fully loaded bike.
DOUBLE-WISHBONE FRONT SUSPENSION
The radical double-wishbone front suspension delivers stellar handling and gives the bike a sleek, sporty appearance. The innovative design changes the wheel's path, letting us move both the engine and rider/passenger closer to the front wheel.
FRAME
This latest generation all-aluminum frame is significantly lighter and more compact than previous editions. State-of-the-art die-casting lets us fine-tune chassis rigidity, giving you a smooth ride and precise handling.
SWINGARM/REAR SUSPENSION
Using our proprietary single-sided Pro Arm design, the aluminum swingarm houses the shaft drive. The swingarm links to the frame using a patented pivot structure that both increases stiffness and reduces weight, so you get responsive handling and a smoother ride.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
All models are equipped with our combined Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) for excellent stopping power on a wide variety of road and traction conditions.
RIDE MODES
The engine offers a wide range of user-friendly power, and you can even choose between four ride modes (Tour, Sport, Rain, and Econ), with each mode varying the power output so you can tailor the bike to your current riding conditions.
LIGHTER OVERALL WEIGHT
We didnt just shave ounces or grams with the latest Gold Wing. We lopped off almost 90 pounds compared to the previous generation, and the lighter weight absolutely redefines this motorcycle. You thought it was fun to ride on twisty roads before wait until you experience this one.
LOW CENTER OF GRAVITY
Its not just how much a motorcycle weighs; its how it distributes that weight that translates to good handling. With its horizontally opposed engine, the latest model offers the lowest center of gravity of any bike in the class.
DUAL RADIAL FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS
The dual brake calipers on these bikes are mounted radially, similar to that of our World Champion RC213V MotoGP racebike. The stiffer mounting reduces caliper flex and improves brake power and feel.
SEVEN-SPEED AUTOMATIC DCT (GOLD WING AUTOMATIC DCT MODEL ONLY)
Available with our revolutionary seven-speed automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT), the shifts are fast and smooth, and the overdrive seventh gear is perfect for highway cruising.
SIX-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION (NOT AVAILABLE ON GOLD WING DCT MODEL)
If you prefer a manual transmission, the latest model offers the best conventional gearbox in Gold Wing history. A case in point is an overdrive sixth gear, so highway cruising is smoother than ever.
HILL START ASSIST
All models offer Hill Start Assist (HSA). This feature momentarily holds your motorcycles position on inclines after youve released the brakes and before you apply the throttle, eliminating any roll-back.
REVERSE
The DCT models offer an exclusive low-speed reverse that uses engine power, while the manual transmission bikes offer a unique electric reverse. Both systems make maneuvering your bike out of a parking space easier, especially if you need to roll back up an incline.
THROTTLE-BY-WIRE
The throttle-by-wire system enables features like the bikes four ride modes and our exclusive Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC).
HONDA SMART KEY
It features an electronic smart key. When the key is in close proximity, you can hop on, press a button, and ride off. An answer back feature lets you find your bike in the dark or in a crowded rally parking lot.
INTEGRATED STARTER GENERATOR (ISG)
Weve combined the starter and alternator into one assembly thats light and compact. Its part of the overall weight-savings program, and youll hear the difference the first time you press the start button.
HONDA SELECTABLE TORQUE CONTROL (HSTC)
On all models, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) monitors your bikes rear-wheel speed and instantly adjusts torque. Its a great feature when riding in the rain or anywhere where surface conditions compromise traction.
CRUISE CONTROL
It still features cruise control (it was one of the first touring bikes to offer the feature). And with our advanced throttle-by-wire system, its better than ever.
SPECIAL 50TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION
2025 is a year to celebrate50 years since the original Gold Wing first revolutionized the world of motorcycle touring. Thats why were producing a special 50th Anniversary model, with exclusive graphics and a since 1975 opening sequence on the instrument display.
NANO-TECH PAINT
Even the paint is high-tech, using BASFs nano technology. The darks look darker, the lights look brighter, and the paint itself has a luxurious feel.
LED LIGHTING
All models feature a complete LED lighting package. The headlights, taillights, and every bit of instrumentation are LED, which last longer, are lighter, and run cooler.
ELECTRIC WINDSCREEN
The windscreen is electrically controlled and provides excellent protection from the elements. It moves up and down over a 4.9-inch range and changes its angle as it raises and lowers. Plus, it automatically remembers the last setting.
FAIRING
The full-coverage fairing offers excellent wind and weather protection, yet is trimmer and more aerodynamic than in previous generation models. It also flows more air through refined ducting, helping keep you cooler on hot summer days.
RIDER/PASSENGER SEATING
All models feature seats with a custom-feel suede-like cover. The rider on every model can enjoy an optional backrest, and on our models without a trunk, theres an optional backrest for the passenger.
LUGGAGE
All models feature integrated saddlebags that are designed to hold enough for most weekend trips. The bags open electronically with the push of a button and lock and unlock remotely with the smart key.
FUNCTIONAL STYLING
While the bodywork still offers excellent weather protection, its crisper now, exposing a little more of the engine and chassis. Its definitely not your grandfathers touring bike.
HEATED GRIPS
Part of riding a bike is enjoying the elements. But nobody likes being cold. Thats why all models come equipped with electric heated grips as standard equipment.
COMPREHENSIVE ACCESSORY LINEUP
With over 35 accessories designed specifically for your Gold Wing, its easy to custom tailor your bike to your individual wants and needs.
ADVANCED METERS
The cockpit meters are information central. In addition to the basics like vehicle and engine speed, ride mode, fuel level, and more, you can also monitor outside air temperature, cruise control speed, and even connect wirelessly to Apple CarPlayor Android Auto.
HOMELINK (OPTIONAL)
Available as an optional feature, HomeLink lets you integrate your new bike with devices in your home, such as your garage door opener, via a switch on your bikes center console.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
Correct tire inflation is necessary for safe, economical motorcycling. And its especially critical with a touring bike because of the varying loads. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) automatically warns you of low tire pressure on all models.
APPLE CARPLAY WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY
A first for the motorcycle industry, Apple CarPlay seamlessly integrates your iPhone into your bike. Available Bluetooth**-enabled wireless headsets let you communicate more easily than ever. Wireless connectivity is new for 2025.
** For using Apple CarPlay, a connection to a commercially available Bluetooth headset is necessary. Please refer to your Bluetooth headset manufacturer for optimal audio settings for use with Apple CarPlay.
ANDROID AUTO WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY
If you have an Android, we have you covered. The 2025 model fully integrates with your phone, thanks to Android Auto. Available Bluetooth*-compatible headsets let you communicate easily. Wireless connectivity is new for 2025.
*For using Android Auto, a connection to a commercially available Bluetooth headset is necessary. Please refer to your Bluetooth headset manufacturer for optimal audio settings for use with Android Auto.
NAVIGATION
Every model is equipped with a big, bright, seven-inch, full-color TFT LCD screen to display routes and other navigation information. Plus, since its equipped with a gyrocompass, the system even functions inside a tunnel.
AUDIO
In addition to listening to music with an available Bluetooth* headset, the audio system lets you make or answer phone calls without taking your helmet off and features a standard USB connector. Plus, theres a second USB connector in the left saddlebag of all models.
*See owners manual for Bluetooth headset requirements.
55-WATT SPEAKERS
Our current speakers have a high 55-watt rating, and weve optimized both the equalizer settings and automatic volume adjustment, so youll get a sound thats a little richer and more pleasing to the ears.
Similar models may be shown in addition to the featured model. Equipment may be shown with options. Specifications are subject to change without prior notice.
